Over the past two decades, synthetic biology has fueled advancements across a broad range of disciplines, including agriculture, bioremediation, biofuel production, and chemical manufacturing. Today, ...
After Intellia Therapeutics paused a pair of phase 3 trials for its CRISPR therapy in response to a liver safety signal, the ...
Intellia Therapeutics will find it challenging to survive now that its CRISPR gene-editing treatment has been tied to severe, ...
The gene-editing technique known as CRISPR is promising to revolutionize medicine. Some researchers are trying to help make it available for people with very rare genetic disorders. A gene-editing ...
Intellia paused both trials after receiving a report of grade 4 liver enzymes and increased total bilirubin in a patient in ...
In modern functional genomics, understanding how specific genes control cellular behavior requires both targeted intervention and high-resolution analysis. That’s where Perturb-Seq comes in—a method ...
Jason Mast is a general assignment reporter at STAT focused on the science behind new medicines and the systems and people that decide whether that science ever reaches patients. You can reach Jason ...
How can we grow enough food without destroying our planet in the process? Physical chemist Brad Ringeisen believes CRISPR may hold the key—by helping to develop climate-resilient crops. Brad Ringeisen ...
We performed both homology-based and GUIDE-seq nomination of candidate off-target sites, which resulted in the testing of 5002 sites from four healthy donors (not shown). We then nominated additional ...
